{"title":"Franck Peillot","description":"\u003cp\u003eFranck Peillot is the clear standout in this sub-alpine region. He makes wines of terroir, elegance and distinction at his family’s historic estate. His still wines made from Mondeuse and Altesse, along with a little Pinot Noir are easily tops for his commune. But he also makes his own version of the region’s most famous sparkling wine known as Montagnieu. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s hard to even compare Franck’s Montagnieu to the large quantities of bubbles that go down the hill to Lyon. Like all his wines he uses native yeasts and is very judicious with SO2. He also uses a high percentage of Mondeuse and Altesse, where most of his neighbors prefer the less fussy Chardonnay. Finally he always makes a single vintage wine and ages it on the lees quite a bit longer than is standard.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/sf.flatiron-wines.com\/collections\/franck-peillot.oembed","provider":"Flatiron SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
